1
00:01:28,819 --> 00:01:31,028
All the treasure is here, as promised.

2
00:01:42,916 --> 00:01:45,000
They have met their obligations.

3
00:01:45,085 --> 00:01:47,837
The emperor expects
that you will meet yours,

4
00:01:47,921 --> 00:01:49,213
and leave immediately.

5
00:02:05,647 --> 00:02:07,022
I'll tell Ragnar.

6
00:02:39,806 --> 00:02:41,891
They've brought the payment.

7
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,064
- I said...
- I heard you.

8
00:02:54,070 --> 00:02:56,197
It makes no difference to me.

9
00:02:58,492 --> 00:02:59,992
I am dying.

10
00:03:08,251 --> 00:03:09,877
But at least I know,

11
00:03:11,505 --> 00:03:13,047
I will see Athelstan again.

12
00:03:25,894 --> 00:03:27,978
What did I tell you, Rollo?

13
00:03:28,063 --> 00:03:30,481
I warned all of you.

14
00:03:30,565 --> 00:03:32,983
The priest poisoned Ragnar's mind

15
00:03:33,068 --> 00:03:35,027
and now we see the fruit of it.

16
00:03:35,111 --> 00:03:36,445
It's true.

17
00:03:37,364 --> 00:03:39,281
And now I have a heavy heart.

18
00:03:44,829 --> 00:03:47,957
I cannot believe that Ragnar
is truly a Christian.

19
00:03:48,041 --> 00:03:49,124
Not in his heart.

20
00:03:49,209 --> 00:03:51,418
You saw what you saw.
And I heard what I heard.

21
00:03:51,503 --> 00:03:53,587
But you too, were baptized, Rollo.

22
00:03:53,672 --> 00:03:54,797
It did not change you.

23
00:03:54,881 --> 00:03:57,049
I did not want it to change me.

24
00:03:57,175 --> 00:04:00,052
The gods protected me
from the Christian magic.

25
00:04:00,136 --> 00:04:02,096
But they refused to protect Ragnar.

26
00:04:02,472 --> 00:04:04,265
- Why?
- You know why.

27
00:04:05,559 --> 00:04:07,059
His name was Athelstan.

28
00:04:07,310 --> 00:04:08,852
Do you think it's true?

29
00:04:08,937 --> 00:04:10,437
What they're saying about Ragnar?

30
00:04:10,522 --> 00:04:12,022
- I hope so.
- Why?

31
00:04:12,774 --> 00:04:14,358
Because no Christian king

32
00:04:14,442 --> 00:04:16,819
will ever be allowed to rule our world.

33
00:04:16,903 --> 00:04:18,487
It's unthinkable.

34
00:04:18,572 --> 00:04:20,614
An insult to our gods and our people.

35
00:04:21,783 --> 00:04:23,826
Then someone needs to kill him.

36
00:05:29,517 --> 00:05:32,811
Princess Gisla,
I want to talk with you.

37
00:05:32,896 --> 00:05:33,937
Not now, Count.

38
00:05:34,022 --> 00:05:36,106
It's neither the time nor place
for earthly things.

39
00:05:36,191 --> 00:05:37,650
Forgive me.

40
00:05:39,611 --> 00:05:41,654
Count Odo,

41
00:05:41,738 --> 00:05:44,865
the princess doesn't seem
to appreciate your valor.

42
00:05:44,949 --> 00:05:46,742
You saved our city.

43
00:05:47,535 --> 00:05:51,664
Please, allow me to
demonstrate my gratitude.

44
00:05:58,046 --> 00:05:59,588
Later, perhaps.

45
00:06:06,304 --> 00:06:08,639
What a day to celebrate.

46
00:06:08,723 --> 00:06:11,016
Our precious city is saved.

47
00:06:12,060 --> 00:06:14,269
We paid them to go away.

48
00:06:14,354 --> 00:06:16,730
How do you count that a victory, Father?

49
00:06:17,857 --> 00:06:21,485
Because next time,
we will be better prepared.

50
00:06:21,569 --> 00:06:25,364
We will block the rivers,
prevent their incursions.

51
00:06:26,324 --> 00:06:29,118
If only my grandfather was here.

52
00:06:29,703 --> 00:06:31,995
If only Charlemagne was here.

53
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,331
How we would rejoice.

54
00:06:34,457 --> 00:06:35,749
Are you sure?

55
00:06:38,378 --> 00:06:39,837
Now I am tired.

56
00:06:41,005 --> 00:06:42,840
God bless you, Daughter.

57
00:06:43,466 --> 00:06:45,134
God bless Paris.

58
00:07:27,761 --> 00:07:29,219
- Helga.
- Let go of me!

59
00:07:29,304 --> 00:07:31,013
- No, no, no, no. Please!
- Yes!

60
00:07:32,015 --> 00:07:35,184
After such knowledge, what forgiveness?

61
00:07:35,268 --> 00:07:37,019
But you don't understand.

62
00:07:37,103 --> 00:07:38,353
What is there to understand?

63
00:07:38,438 --> 00:07:39,938
Everything!

64
00:07:56,581 --> 00:07:58,040
There will come a time

65
00:07:59,959 --> 00:08:03,045
when you will be responsible
for our people.

66
00:08:05,757 --> 00:08:07,007
You are our king.

67
00:08:07,342 --> 00:08:08,675
Hmm.

68
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,093
For now.

69
00:08:13,932 --> 00:08:15,641
But when your time comes,

70
00:08:17,393 --> 00:08:19,102
you must lead with your head,

71
00:08:19,854 --> 00:08:21,480
not with your heart.

72
00:08:22,482 --> 00:08:23,941
Can you do that?

73
00:08:24,567 --> 00:08:25,859
Yes, Father.

74
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:31,281
I have something
I only trust you to do for me.

75
00:08:49,675 --> 00:08:53,278
<i>If you would truly see
what the gods have in store for you,</i>

76
00:08:53,704 --> 00:08:57,307
<i>you would go down now
and dance naked on the beach.</i>

77
00:09:05,233 --> 00:09:08,151
Where does your husband
think you are tonight?

78
00:09:08,444 --> 00:09:10,445
My husband will be too drunk
to even care.

79
00:09:10,530 --> 00:09:11,613
I almost believe you.

80
00:09:15,076 --> 00:09:17,661
The princess will not speak
with you tonight.

81
00:09:19,539 --> 00:09:22,374
She will speak with me,
eventually.

82
00:09:23,167 --> 00:09:25,043
Her father will insist.

83
00:09:26,754 --> 00:09:28,213
She seems very boring.

84
00:09:29,757 --> 00:09:31,008
So moral.

85
00:09:31,551 --> 00:09:32,801
So good.

86
00:09:34,721 --> 00:09:36,471
It is very tedious.

87
00:09:38,516 --> 00:09:41,476
You would soon tire of her, believe me.

88
00:09:41,936 --> 00:09:43,145
Perhaps.

89
00:09:44,898 --> 00:09:47,774
But then again,
breaking her could be interesting.

90
00:09:50,111 --> 00:09:54,072
Is there a way that
I could keep your interest?

91
00:10:02,749 --> 00:10:04,082
Come.

92
00:10:04,709 --> 00:10:05,751
We will see.

93
00:10:50,922 --> 00:10:53,090
If you would submit.

94
00:10:54,008 --> 00:10:55,008
To what?

95
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,469
To being chained up and whipped.

96
00:10:59,889 --> 00:11:03,684
Of course, I will allow you to
choose the whip.

97
00:11:04,519 --> 00:11:06,228
Some are more severe than others.

98
00:11:22,495 --> 00:11:24,997
You will always be able to call a halt,

99
00:11:25,999 --> 00:11:28,458
though I would prefer to decide myself.

100
00:12:04,871 --> 00:12:06,538
It would keep my interest.

101
00:12:07,790 --> 00:12:09,374
Undoubtedly.

102
00:12:44,744 --> 00:12:46,578
Tell me when to strike.

103
00:12:49,665 --> 00:12:50,957
Say "strike".

104
00:12:58,299 --> 00:12:59,508
Strike.

105
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:55,897
What are you doing?

106
00:13:59,610 --> 00:14:02,404
Ragnar asked me to build him
one last boat.

107
00:14:30,266 --> 00:14:33,560
It's almost a month
since we gave them their blood money.

108
00:14:33,644 --> 00:14:35,312
So why are they still here?

109
00:14:35,396 --> 00:14:36,605
We don't know.

110
00:14:36,689 --> 00:14:38,857
Perhaps it is time we found out.

111
00:14:56,334 --> 00:14:59,502
He wants to know why you're still here
and not returned home.

112
00:15:00,213 --> 00:15:01,273
They have honored their pledge,

113
00:15:01,297 --> 00:15:03,465
why are you not honoring yours?

114
00:15:07,178 --> 00:15:10,388
Our king, my father, Ragnar Lothbrok,

115
00:15:11,390 --> 00:15:13,433
is too weak and ill to travel.

116
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:28,573
He wants to see.

117
00:15:34,580 --> 00:15:36,039
Wait.

118
00:15:57,103 --> 00:15:59,646
If he dies, he has only asked one thing.

119
00:16:01,983 --> 00:16:04,818
That he receive
a proper Christian burial.

120
00:16:05,403 --> 00:16:07,320
Otherwise, we will not leave.

121
00:16:29,176 --> 00:16:31,261
He says you may bring his body
to the cathedral,

122
00:16:31,345 --> 00:16:33,221
carried by unarmed men.

123
00:16:33,514 --> 00:16:36,349
They will say a Christian mass
for his soul.

124
00:19:13,549 --> 00:19:15,300
You can go talk to him now.

125
00:20:03,098 --> 00:20:06,267
Who knows, Ragnar,
what the gods have in store for us.

126
00:20:07,061 --> 00:20:08,645
But this,

127
00:20:08,729 --> 00:20:10,563
I can never imagine.

128
00:20:14,568 --> 00:20:16,986
If you have gone to heaven,

129
00:20:17,071 --> 00:20:19,530
then we will never meet again.

130
00:20:21,492 --> 00:20:23,451
And yet,

131
00:20:23,535 --> 00:20:26,329
I think Odin will ride like the wind,

132
00:20:26,413 --> 00:20:28,248
and rescue you,

133
00:20:28,332 --> 00:20:30,792
and take you to Valhalla,
where you belong,

134
00:20:30,876 --> 00:20:32,877
my own sweet Ragnar.

135
00:20:33,879 --> 00:20:35,838
And there,

136
00:20:35,923 --> 00:20:38,049
there we shall meet again,

137
00:20:38,133 --> 00:20:41,052
and fight and drink

138
00:20:42,471 --> 00:20:44,472
and love one another.

139
00:20:47,393 --> 00:20:49,894
I have never stopped loving you.

140
00:20:51,563 --> 00:20:53,481
Not for one moment.

141
00:20:56,735 --> 00:20:59,404
You and I were born to be together.

142
00:21:01,699 --> 00:21:05,034
I've always resented you, it's true.

143
00:21:06,370 --> 00:21:07,912
No point denying it.

144
00:21:11,333 --> 00:21:13,209
I'm sorry you're dead,

145
00:21:14,044 --> 00:21:16,504
but it happens to all of us,
sooner or later.

146
00:21:19,591 --> 00:21:22,176
It's just funny that
the gods took you first.

147
00:21:24,847 --> 00:21:27,265
I always thought they favored you.

148
00:21:29,977 --> 00:21:31,978
You thought so, too.

149
00:21:36,108 --> 00:21:39,777
You thought you were a god, Ragnar.

150
00:21:43,490 --> 00:21:45,199
But in the end,

151
00:21:46,702 --> 00:21:48,369
you're just a man.

152
00:21:51,373 --> 00:21:52,582
So, then...

153
00:21:56,837 --> 00:21:59,464
I made the boat that took you to fame,

154
00:22:04,011 --> 00:22:07,722
and I made the boat that will
take you to your heaven.

155
00:22:09,683 --> 00:22:12,393
Give my regards to Athelstan,
by the way.

156
00:22:16,607 --> 00:22:18,649
You betrayed us.

157
00:22:18,817 --> 00:22:21,152
You betrayed your heritage.

158
00:22:21,278 --> 00:22:23,071
You betrayed our future.

159
00:22:23,155 --> 00:22:25,156
You betrayed me!

160
00:22:26,033 --> 00:22:28,451
I loved you more than anyone.

161
00:22:28,535 --> 00:22:31,412
I loved you more than that priest
ever loved you.

162
00:22:32,164 --> 00:22:33,915
But it made no difference.

163
00:22:34,458 --> 00:22:37,043
You always thought,
"Oh, it's just Floki.

164
00:22:37,169 --> 00:22:39,128
"No need to bother about Floki.

165
00:22:39,213 --> 00:22:40,922
"He's just a fool."

166
00:22:45,511 --> 00:22:48,638
I hate you, Ragnar Lothbrok.

167
00:22:53,519 --> 00:22:56,020
And I love you with all my heart.

168
00:22:59,149 --> 00:23:02,193
Why do you tear me away from myself?

169
00:28:12,462 --> 00:28:13,462
Princess!

170
00:28:24,015 --> 00:28:25,558
I win.

171
00:29:04,389 --> 00:29:05,473
The princess!

172
00:29:46,264 --> 00:29:47,264
Cut them!

173
00:29:52,604 --> 00:29:53,896
Go!

174
00:31:36,291 --> 00:31:39,209
<i>I can see that not the living,</i>

175
00:31:39,461 --> 00:31:42,212
<i>but the dead, will conquer Paris.</i>

176
00:32:58,957 --> 00:33:02,751
Your Highness,
they raided many parts of the city,

177
00:33:02,836 --> 00:33:05,421
took what they wanted,
and left.

178
00:33:08,049 --> 00:33:09,883
Imperial Highness.

179
00:33:15,557 --> 00:33:16,724
Your Highness.

180
00:33:17,517 --> 00:33:20,227
They have violated our city.

181
00:33:22,564 --> 00:33:24,481
What is there to say?

182
00:33:26,151 --> 00:33:28,902
All the angels in heaven are weeping.

183
00:33:30,655 --> 00:33:32,781
Father, get up.

184
00:33:33,783 --> 00:33:35,659
The heathens have gone.

185
00:33:57,223 --> 00:33:58,515
Your Highness.

186
00:34:03,813 --> 00:34:05,773
Why did you not tell us earlier?

187
00:34:05,857 --> 00:34:07,524
Did you not trust us?

188
00:34:08,985 --> 00:34:10,819
I did what my father asked me to do.

189
00:34:10,945 --> 00:34:12,112
But...

190
00:34:12,197 --> 00:34:14,364
It was the way he wanted to do it
and he is still king!

191
00:34:16,284 --> 00:34:18,202
And he succeeded.

192
00:34:18,286 --> 00:34:19,787
Hmm. He got us into Paris.

193
00:34:19,913 --> 00:34:22,122
And now we have even more spoils.

194
00:34:31,424 --> 00:34:33,550
We leave the camp tomorrow for home.

195
00:34:33,676 --> 00:34:35,780
But because we intend on raiding Paris
again in the spring,

196
00:34:35,804 --> 00:34:39,223
it is important to maintain
some sort of presence here.

197
00:34:42,393 --> 00:34:43,560
I will stay.

198
00:34:45,396 --> 00:34:46,530
No.

199
00:34:48,858 --> 00:34:51,151
You have no reason to stay here, Floki.

200
00:34:54,364 --> 00:34:56,448
And what reason do you have, Uncle?

201
00:35:05,291 --> 00:35:06,917
Then it is decided.

202
00:35:07,418 --> 00:35:09,753
You will winter here
with the rest of the warriors

203
00:35:09,838 --> 00:35:11,129
who decide to stay with you.

204
00:36:21,534 --> 00:36:25,662
It is wonderful to be able to eat
good food again.

205
00:36:27,290 --> 00:36:30,167
These snails are so plump, so juicy.

206
00:36:32,128 --> 00:36:35,380
You know that the Northmen
have not all left.

207
00:36:37,550 --> 00:36:41,219
The great warrior called Rollo
has remained in the camp.

208
00:36:41,304 --> 00:36:42,971
But most have gone.

209
00:36:43,056 --> 00:36:44,598
Yes...

210
00:36:44,682 --> 00:36:46,099
But they will return again.

211
00:36:46,267 --> 00:36:48,018
That is why Rollo has remained.

212
00:36:49,020 --> 00:36:50,604
They will return in the spring,

213
00:36:50,688 --> 00:36:53,190
probably in even greater numbers.

214
00:36:53,483 --> 00:36:55,901
Surely one of your brothers
will come to our aid?

215
00:36:58,196 --> 00:37:01,782
I have been weak enough
to send messages to them.

216
00:37:02,367 --> 00:37:05,369
I have begged and pleaded our cause
to no avail.

217
00:37:06,371 --> 00:37:08,872
Their hatred for me turns
out to be the supreme

218
00:37:08,957 --> 00:37:10,958
and guiding principle of their lives.

219
00:37:19,926 --> 00:37:21,343
So, what are we to do?

220
00:37:29,477 --> 00:37:31,812
I will not be known to history

221
00:37:32,355 --> 00:37:36,942
as the French emperor who presided
over the destruction of Paris.

222
00:37:37,568 --> 00:37:40,028
I cannot and will not allow

223
00:37:40,113 --> 00:37:43,740
such an intolerable fate
to befall our beloved city.

224
00:37:44,075 --> 00:37:45,951
You will have to offer
them even more money.

225
00:37:50,707 --> 00:37:53,875
I will have to offer them
even more than that.

226
00:37:55,545 --> 00:37:59,047
I must offer them something
far more precious to me

227
00:37:59,841 --> 00:38:02,259
than gold or silver.

228
00:38:09,308 --> 00:38:11,435
I must offer your hand in marriage.

229
00:38:13,646 --> 00:38:16,023
This is Count Odo's doing.

230
00:38:16,107 --> 00:38:17,983
Just because I refuse to marry him,

231
00:38:18,067 --> 00:38:20,444
he wants to have me thrown to the dogs.

232
00:38:20,695 --> 00:38:22,089
Will you not consider it, my child,

233
00:38:22,113 --> 00:38:23,447
for the sake of Paris?

234
00:38:23,823 --> 00:38:27,242
I would do almost anything
for the sake of Paris.

235
00:38:27,326 --> 00:38:30,537
I would kill myself
for the sake of Paris.

236
00:38:30,788 --> 00:38:33,373
But I will not be tied in holy matrimony

237
00:38:33,458 --> 00:38:35,459
to someone who is more beast than man.

238
00:38:36,711 --> 00:38:39,296
Then I will have to recall
our deputation.

239
00:38:41,799 --> 00:38:44,760
You have already sent an envoy
to make this offer?

240
00:38:45,803 --> 00:38:47,387
Without even asking me?

241
00:38:47,889 --> 00:38:49,765
Without even thinking of me?

242
00:38:50,516 --> 00:38:51,767
Oh, Father!

243
00:38:52,226 --> 00:38:53,935
I am your father.

244
00:38:55,313 --> 00:38:58,148
But I am also the Emperor of Frankia.

245
00:38:58,941 --> 00:39:02,152
And it is not your father
who asks this of you,

246
00:39:02,820 --> 00:39:04,488
it is the emperor.

247
00:39:05,198 --> 00:39:06,364
And therefore,

248
00:39:07,617 --> 00:39:08,867
you will obey him.

249
00:39:26,344 --> 00:39:30,263
You will be offered a vast area of land
in the northern part of Frankia.

250
00:39:30,348 --> 00:39:32,432
The emperor will also make you a duke,

251
00:39:32,517 --> 00:39:34,810
the highest honor he can bestow.

252
00:39:34,894 --> 00:39:37,896
You will be very rich,
and you will be very important.

253
00:39:47,448 --> 00:39:49,574
The emperor also offers
the hand in marriage

254
00:39:49,659 --> 00:39:52,118
of his beautiful daughter,
Princess Gisla.

255
00:39:57,834 --> 00:39:59,876
What must I do in return?

256
00:40:10,513 --> 00:40:13,056
You will defend Paris
against your brother.

257
00:42:42,748 --> 00:42:44,207
Floki!

258
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,365
You killed Athelstan.
